No, but life isn't all fucking champagne and skittles. Too many kids give up on things because they are hard or not as rewarding as they first hoped. They just going to walk away from their first challenge in life, because that's going to stand them well in later life. They need to toughen up

Come on, we have been shite for over 20 years. Even when we were really shite fighting relegation we had fight. We ainít even got that now, Park the bus shithouse tactics. Kids have overcome plenty of obstacles in there short time here so you will be glad to know that itís nothing to do with fight. Itís to do with them not being fulfilled on a continuous basis by a club that seems to be going backwards

The club is useless from top to bottom. Honestly, I've got two sons of 16 and 12. Both can't be bothered even watching Everton anymore. The youngest has said he cba watching the game tonight coz we will get smashed. The club will be obsolete in a few more years coz the next generation aren't as hoodwinked as the rest of us. I don't blame Barkley for moving on, he was publicly slated by an incompetent manager that should never of got the job. Everton tho aren't we, born not manufactured, peoples club , we are an embarrassment

you made a point there about your lads not being bothered about going the game, and i think its a valid 1 . When i cant get there i offer my ticket to my lad, he says he cba too, his mates dont want it either. i cant remember seeing many under 21s (approx age) at the game for a while now. Would be interesting to find out how many 21 and under are at the game and what percentage have bought the ticket themselves, because going the match does seem to be losing its buzz for some next generation fans

It is what it is, if I pay money to a business I would at least expect it to be ran accordingly and maybe that way it would filter down onto the pitch that where we are and have been for the last 20+ years isn't acceptable, to me it isn't anyway. You might enjoy the way we sell our best players without replacing them. Also when we do eventually sign players it takes a lot longer than most clubs to get it over the line. How we accept managers being below average for far to long until real damage has been done and then we go and sign a relegation battling manager. We haven't improved since Moyes, we have gone backwards. The clubs a joke

Come on, we have been shite for over 20 years. Even when we were really shite fighting relegation we had fight. We ainít even got that now, Park the bus shithouse tactics.

We've actually been finish for 30 years. We've had the odd decent season and the cup win, but that's it.

Kind of get the point that young lads not going the game. I stopped at 18 but that was cos I was playing. When I stopped I renewed.Id imagine there's a few out there the same as meSadly tho as well, the teenage generation now are very much want it now, unsociable bunch.

We all say we've been shite for 20 years but the reality is we really haven't. Been in the top league all that time. Been in the top half of that league probably for half of it

Obviously Everton is a lot of disappointment. We all want to win and play Barcelona style football. As fans though we are a hell of a lot luckier than most.
